Their demo Died Before Dawn led them to sign a deal with Spanish Metal label Xtreem Music.
Throughout 2003, they worked on new material for their first album while improving their live presence, playing through all Andalusia with local bands, even sharing the stage with Spanish legends Barón Rojo, Soziedad Alkoholika, and Avulsed.
Deathillusion was to include three re-recordings from the demo, as well as six new songs which reflected a clear evolution to a more technical kind of death metal, without losing the band’s distinctive melodic touch.
This release was supported by an extensive Spanish tour, which saw the band playing next to international legends like Malevolent Creation and Pestilence.
After recording Died Before Dawn, the new compositions for Deathillusion pointed to a more technical approach on the steps of North American acts like Death, and more presence of classical thrash metal riffs, without losing the band's distinctive melodic reference.
